During a special Mass in Yola, Bishop Mamza, also the immediate Adamawa State Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), lamented the growing trend of churches being established solely for commercial gain.

He highlighted the pervasive desire among individuals to become general overseers and acquire private jets, attributing it to the rampant establishment of profit-driven churches.

In a candid revelation, Bishop Mamza recounted a personal encounter where a general overseer solicited him to purchase their church due to financial struggles, emphasizing the prevalent focus on material wealth rather than spiritual nourishment.

The Bishop’s remarks were made during a Mass held at St. Augustine’s Catholic Church, Bekaji, Yola, to commemorate this year’s World Communications Sunday of the Catholic Church. Addressing the theme of the day, ‘Artificial Intelligence and the Wisdom of the Heart Towards a Fully Human Communication,’ Bishop Mamza emphasized the irreplaceable value of human empathy and passion in communication, asserting that artificial intelligence cannot replicate the depth of human connection.

While acknowledging the opportunities presented by communication platforms, Bishop Mamza cautioned against the dehumanizing effects of technology, urging for a balanced approach that prioritizes genuine human interaction. He emphasized the importance of maintaining empathy and compassion in communication, essential elements that artificial intelligence cannot replicate.

In conclusion, Bishop Mamza called for a renewed focus on strengthening human communication, rooted in empathy and compassion, amidst the rapid advancement of technology. He urged individuals to prioritize authentic connections and relationships, emphasizing the intrinsic value of human touch and empathy in fostering meaningful interactions.
